I can admin a windows server via RDP on the train, but cannot fucking load a page on here with my 3g laptop on the move.

Snail slow !!!

I have done some basic tests.....

The server is in america - More IP hops = Slower connection.
Average 480 millisecond per packet average.
This doesnt include the server response times
Pinging of BBC.co.uk gives us 10 times quicker connection @ 48 milliseconds average
(This server is in england)


Scoobynet IP and Passionford IP address are the same 67.201.17.106
Whilst this may not be a speed issue in itself, you have at least 2 very busy websites being served through the same portal and it is likely there is sharing of servers, routers and/or database connections.
I havent checked if any other of the many IB sites are the same.



I wont mention the search engine bots that have been given free access or the huge amount of adverts or the duplication of adverts on the same page


At least AJ's choice of prestige transport is better than petrucci's

Unuseable for me, slows my machine down and starts hammering my memory useage......as soon as i disconnect from pf its fine, and fine on other sites/forums.

Its a damn site quicker on my iphone than my laptop......there seems to be something sinister going on, too much stuff embedded in the pages to do with adverts and tracking no doubt

It's useless. Using my iPhone is quicker on here than my laptop. (I think someone else said that too)

I think we should all use the report button on the first post in this thread to flood the mod section with reports!

I won't be paying another Ł10 for a shit slow website. I reckon the owner of IB should sell his Yacht and invest some fucking money.

Edit: What they should do is take it back to a barebones forum, this in my opinion will help establish what exactly is causing the problem, maybe there just isn't quite enough MSD advertisements

exactly all the poxy adverts are slowing it down, if i wanted a cheap holiday or a better phone deal i'll look on google not on a car forum FFS

There was a post on 6 speed a few months ago showing IB's average price they pay for a site , and also there profits for the last few years. Trust me the owner wont need to sell any yacht.

Which rather amusingly further points towards Internet Brands servers being at fault, load this page - http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/s...et-brands.html - see how slow it is?

I like how in the first post it also says:


Q: How will the acquisition help 6speeodnline.com?
A: The main benefit will be having more infrastructure and technology resources behind the site. Better servers and hardware will mean better performance for the site and admin tools. And more technology resources will mean faster bug-fixes, quicker turnaround on site changes and more frequent updates in site software, like vBulletin or photo-posting applications.
6speedonline seem to have it better than us though, but certainly nowhere near what I would deem to be an acceptable page serve time.

Epic Internet Brands fail!

They will be the tossbags who are more than likely stopping them from further upgrading their resources. We haven't made a billion yet so we aren't investing any more money.



Significant improvement in speed at the moment but still far beyond acceptable.
